100 Things I Will Miss about Sweden number 2: My super cozy swimming pool. Definitely my hideaway destination whenever I feel stressed. I always enjoy the feeling of floating on the water and especially the sauna after! Before I used to swim at Aqvakul but then they closed it for public and moved my membership here. And today, after 1,3 years my membership is finished but I'll still come back somehow! Because my fins are always longing for water :) #100thingsIwillmissaboutSweden #livinginsweden

Tun kan.. Makanya jangan lupa makan sama pup 😅

Pingsan

kalau dengar atau lihat kata pingsan pasti ingat jaman sekolah dulu saat upacara. ya kan? 😄 seingat saya, rasanya saya belum pernah pingsan. kalau hasrat ingin pingsan pernah, tiga kali! makanya kadang suka penasaran sama yang pingsan. penasaran, emangnya ga ngerasa ya kalo dirinya itu mau pingsan? lebih penasaran lagi pengen tau rasanya waktu orang yang pingsan jatuh saat pingsan itu sakit atau ga. 😴 dari tiga kali hasrat pingin pingsan itu, semuanya saya sadar dan berusaha sekuat tenaga supaya saya ga pingsan. ini ceritanya saya urutin dari kejadian paling baru ke yang paling lama.

jari tangan kegunting tadi sore menjelang malam jari tengah kiri saya kegunting, cukup panjang dan dalam. pantes aja darah yang keluar cukup banyak dan kental. setelah kegunting reflek langsung cari mama buat nanya dimana plester. si mama jawabnya ga jelas, lama. malah ditanya-tanya, eh ya wajar sih. udah pengen banget marah tapi untung bisa ditahan. setelah dapet plester langsung ke kamar mandi bersihin dan tutup luka pake plester sekenanya. yang penting ga liat darah ngucur lagi. lemeesss brooo liat darah. kemudian ke rak piring ambil gelas. jalan menuju dispenser kok mulai keliyengan ya, kepala berat pandangan kabur. dalam hati, masa sih jari kegunting aja mau pingsan. tapi keinget juga kalo saya lagi menstruasi. mungkin itu yang bikin lemesnya jadi dobel. tinggal (mungkin) dua langkah lagi sampe dispenser tetiba diri ini merasa udah ga kuat lagi. rasanya kalo dipaksa saya bakalan jatuh. kalo jatuh gimana? mungkin gelas yang saya pegang pecah lalu saya terjatuh kena beling. akhirnya ga mau maksain, malah tiduran di depan kulkas. ga ada tempat memungkinkan buat tiduran. cuma ada kursi. udah coba duduk di kursi tapi tetep keliyengan. untuk ngilangin keliyengan itu kayaknya harus tiduran. tetiba ada dede qodil lewat, dia dari depan mau ke atas mungkin belum kelar main burung di atas sama bapa. dede qodil kaget, manggil saya. untung ga teriak. “mba, kenapa?” “ambilin aku aer anget de, ini gelasnya di tangan aku” sampe ga kuat angkat tangan saking lemesnya. sumpah. mungkin dede bingung harus gimana, dia malah pengen langsung ke atas. “tunggu de, aku mau lagi aer angetnya” “udah kan mba, emang kenapa sih mba?” “tunggu jangan ke atas dulu, aku mau aer anget lagi” setelah minum tiga gelas aer anget keringet langsung bercucuran, baru deh pandangan jelas dan bisa bangun. langsung bilang ke dede; “bilangin mama de, aku tiduran dulu sebentar. barusan lemes banget mau pingsan tangan aku abis kegunting.”

kebelet pup di kereta waktu itu saya sama Kapitunk (@fitaru) mau dateng ke pameran alat selam dan snorkeling. tempatnya lupa dimana, pokoknya kami berdua naik kereta arah tanah abang. awalnya biasa ngobrol-ngobrol sampai ngakak-ngakak seperti biasa. tapi waktu sampai di stasiun manggarai rasanya pusing ya. itu saya tahan, karna keretanya lumayan penuh dan kayaknya sebentar lagi sampai tempat kami turun. tapi kok pusingnya makin terasa, pandangan buram, lutut lemes. akhirnya saya jongkok karna udah ga tahan. tinggal kapitunk kebingungan karna sebelumnya masih ketawa-tawa kok tiba-tiba jongkok. “cirun kenapa?” “ga tau nih aku pusing” “cirun kok pucet? cirun gapapa kan?” untungnya ada mbak di depan yang mau kasih kursinya ke saya. setelah duduk dan pejamin mata sebentar rasanya lumayan reda pusingnya. akhirnya saya mutusin untuk batal ikut ke pameran alat selam dan snorkeling (yang akhirnya sedikit nyesel), turun aja di stasiun sudirman untuk istirahat atau beli minum dulu. turun di sudirman yang terpikir beli minuman anget dulu. tapi pasti penuh dan ngantri banget karna banyak orang yang turun dari kereta lalu belanja juga. akhirnya duduk sebentar kemudian cari toilet untuk cuci muka. sampe toilet malah mau pup. setelah pup kepala jadi enteng dan badan segar kembali. kesimpulannya, pasti tadi saya pusing mau pingsan karna kebelet pup. ahahaa ✌😂

sepedahan sore itu kapitunk ngajak saya nge-gym tapi saya tolak setelah tau kalo olahraga di gym itu ga seru, lebih seru naik sepeda betulan keliling UI. jadinya sore itu kapitunk ngegym dan saya sepedahan keliling UI. biasanya saya sepedahan di sore hari arahnya mulai dari stadion, FMIPA, FKM, dan seterusnya sampai FT balik lagi ke kukel. sore itu arah sebaliknya. saya mulai dari FT, asrama, dan seterusnya. tapi, dari asrama menuju gerbang keluar UI kok anginnya kencang dan berat sekali. kesimpulan saya sih kayaknya sore itu saya lawan angin, makanya berat dan dingin sekali. rasanya pusing dan udah ga kuat lagi gowes sepeda. akhirnya maksain gowes pelan-pelan sampai halte UI. boro-boro deh kebut-kebutan kayak biasanya. ahaha. di halte stasiun kan ada pengasong yang jualan rokok sama minuman yang diseduh gitu. tadinya mau beli teh anget. tapi liat kuku abangnya item banget jadi ngurungin niat. beli kopi sachetan aja deh diseduh. kemungkinan bersentuhan sama kuku item kan lebih kecil. akhirnya minum kopi sambil pejemin mata sebentar. setelah pusing lumayan reda akhirnya mutusin gowes lagi untuk langsung pulang aja. setelah lewatin halte stasiun UI kok pusing lagi ya. akhirnya berhenti lagi di halte FH. duduk disitu lama sekali. lutut udah lemes. rasanya udah ga kuat gowes lagi. coba WA ke kapitunk, kali aja kebetulan dia udah mau pulang juga. tapi lama banget ga dibales. mungkin kapitunk berenang, jadi agak lama olahraganya. sambil mikir harus gimana lagi, saya mikir juga kenapa segininya amat ya ini badan. biasanya oke-oke aja dibawa ngapa-ngapain.

eh ternyata, saya belum sarapan.

iya, saya seharian belum makan! pantes aja. setelah tau penyebabnya tanpa mikir saya panggil ojek minta tolong anterin ke Dermaga One FMIPA buat makan disana. biasanya cuma makan capcay seafood tanpa nasi, sore itu pake nasi! ahahaa kalap. tadinya mau makan di FH atau di fakultas manapun yang lebih dekat. tapi kan saya ga tau kalo ke kantinnya lewat mana. ga tau juga tempat parkir. ga bawa gembok sepeda juga. kalo di Dermaga One sepeda ga dikunci sih selama ini aman. karna kan sambil makan bisa sambil ngeliatin sepeda masih aman atau ga.

begitu sudah. akhir kata, jaga kesehatan ya! semoga semua sehat selalu. salam olahraga! 💪

Fan forest by pnup65 If we have tropical forest on terrain,when you take a plunge in the ocean you will have forest underwater as well.Coral reef is the fragile ecosystem and act as a habitat for marine lifes.They use this forest to feed,clean,reproduce,etc.If the reef collapsed,all the aquatic life collapsed too.Tell me one reason that why we won’t save this underwater forest. Seafan forest in Misool,South of Raja Ampat.Daram island is definitely one of the most beautiful seafan forest in the area.When we dive here we feel like we’re in underwater jungle.Gorgonian seafan is actually an invertebrate animal and it’s not a plant like their life form.They’re so fragile and please be careful when you take a photo and swim around.Our fin kick could damage a half decade old seafan and she will be gone forever.

For the Love of Fungi: Foraging with @the_mushroom_ninja

To see more of Ryan’s photos, check out @the_mushroom_ninja on Instagram.

It’s hard to believe that Ryan Grastorf (@the_mushroom_ninja) started photographing fungi a mere year and a half ago. “As an effort to reduce stress in life, I just started hiking more,” the full-time student says. “I found a mushroom, a very cool looking mushroom, and the rest is kind of history.” Since then, Ryan has gone into the woods near his home in Baltimore every day in search of his subject matter. He estimates that he’s photographed about 150 different kinds of mushrooms, many of which he has identified with the help of the Instagram community. “Mushrooms have this historically bad rap. But every time I share my world with somebody, they’re completely in awe, like, ‘Wow, I did not know mushrooms were like that.’”

That last one is the most important.

To start my project of 100 Things I Will Miss about Sweden, I will post my number 1: Viatcheslav Grankov or Slava. The universe united us in Sweden and it didn't take me too long to realized that we are each other soulmate. And soulmate could means deep friendship that I will keep always in my heart. Slava always be there when I need him, brings me joy and happiness, also comfort me when I feel sad or low. Those stupid and dirty jokes, tiring walks to the city, endless visit to second hand shops, good Belarusian foods and liquor, various tea and chocolate, BBC series on rich families and royals, French cheese and wines, also endless movie night will always be missed. #100thingsIwillmissaboutSweden #grateful #living in Sweden (at Malmö Folkets Park)

I’m all about body positively, and since the fat acceptance movement is a massive part of that, I felt like it was time to take a look at it.

There’s a lot to love about FA- it teaches us to view people equally regardless of their size. It also challenges negative, offensive stereotypes and discourages bullying. It shows us that being fat isn’t a horrific thing.

But like any movements FA has its flaws. It can become dangerous when people use it as an excuse to not take care of themselves. You can think you look hot, and totally love and accept your fuller figure, but you must never forget that being overweight comes with health risks. I think it’s important to always be mindful of that as well as having an FA mindset…After all life isn’t all about appearance.

A lot of people like to explain consent in sexual encounters as “No means no.” This is true, but doesn’t capture as many crucial parts of happy fun sex and experiences as “Yes means yes!” Consent should always be informed and enthusiastic, never coerced, and you and your partner should be looking for consent continuously. Stay safe, stay happy, and have fun!
